The cumulative effect of the confession to HB & others together with his chats & DAs Buch writings will leave no doubt that CB has confessed to the crime.I've just posted some pages back that, believing in the portuguese subtitles, HCW told (in german) to SF, in portuguese TV program, Sexta às 9, that HB and MS are not central pieces in BKA investigation on MM. He also said the basic that they were key in DM case.
Unless he is bluffing/lying, IMO the evidence they have on MM could eventually be stronger than only potential autonomous/independent corroboration of testimonies-autobiographic texts/chats.
But there’s no evidence that doesn’t emanate from him - no body/forensics. The phone evidence is weak. The eye witnesses saw him the days before. No-one saw him in town that night. The McCanns never saw him. OC staff never saw him.
The Defence will attack all the evidence and won’t put him on the stand. But could they introduce the idea that he’s a Walter Mitty fantasist, a braggart? That he bragged about committing the crime but didn’t do it. They’d need to find evidence of that in his chats & writing. They’d need a Psych report.
